This is not my personal experience---and I don't even have a name,but in mtg with a 3rd opinion onc. here in our home town whoactually said he sees A LOT of cc--he said he has a patient whois 8 years out with this cancer and doing well!!

The patient had a resection and after 4 yrs the cancer came backand then this person has been 4 MORE years doing really good.
